I agree with you and Ann Coulter...

however, what has happend OTHER than Imus and the basketball team is what has concerned me.

I sure don’t like hearing that the drive to get Imus fired is SO intense..but, when asked about rappers...they make excuses..

Sure, two wrongs don’t make a right...but, who makes the rules?? How are we to know when something is okay??

If it was just the people complaining to the advertisers..and the network making the decision based on that...that is okay..that is capitalism and the marketplace making the decision.

However, are any of these advertisers also adversiting on BET or sponsoring any concerts that rappers headline?? Do any of these advertisers advertise on radio stations that play rap music...

What about the Chris Rock videos and concerts??

Double standards...that is what is pervasive in this country in many, many ways...and it is getting scary.

Larry Flint produces female porn. Girls Gone Wild video for sale. Doesn’t mean that Brit Hume should get away with showing full frontal nudity on his TV show.

See how rediculous this Chris Rock, rapper comparison seems.

Also, not in reply to you, this forum gives so much credit Sharpton and Jackson. Please don’t be misled into thinking that blacks are mind-numbed robots who can only be told by their “leaders” that they are insulted.
